As I write this I'm at Flight Level 360 heading home from
a high school reunion in my hometown of Memphis,
Tennessee. It was a fabulous weekend!
While there, I also took the opportunity to visit ACBL
Headquarters in nearby Horn Lake, MS, and visit with
Stephanie Threlkeld, a good friend and the ACBL's director
of education.
It was also a treat to drop in on the fabulous bridge
museum at headquarters. Well worth a visit if you find
yourself in Memphis!
Robert Todd May 14
 Those of you who have seen Robert speak,
attended one of his webinars or in-person sessions, can
attest to his unique style and teaching approach to bridge.
Robert is always entertaining, and he has a knack for
turning difficult subjects into manageable concepts. Time
spent with him is virtually guaranteed to improve not only
your results but your enjoyment of the game of bridge.
We set his seminar for May 14. It will be an all-day affair,
9:30-12:00 and 1:30-4:00. The cost will be $90.
Our plan for the sessions are slam bidding in the
morning, and finesse and so much more in the
afternoon.
It will be the perfect combination of some bidding and some
play. His subjects tend to be easily accessible for new
players, while still having lots of juicy bits for
experienced players.
Later this week I'll have a flier available. I'm also
planning on some direct-mail advertising. Meanwhile, save
the date, tell your friends, and let me know if you'd like
to reserve a seat!

Bridge the Ultimate
Mindsport
This is the working title for a new documentary being
developed on the subject of bridge. They have been filming
bridge at all levels. They captured a lot of footage at
the NABC in New Orleans this past March.
They'll be visiting the Pasadena Bridge Club this coming
Thursday. :)
They'll be shooting during my Bridge Basics 2 class that
morning, and may stay for the afternoon novice game, but
that isn't decided.
Being a documentary, we have no idea what, if anything,
will become of the footage shot here, but wouldn't it be a
treat to see our beautiful bridge club featured?
Let's hope for the best!
Bridge Basics 1
Introduction May 20
The next round of Bridge Basics 1 will start on Saturday

weekend) and June 10 (Grand National Teams District
Final).
The course is in the Pasadena City College Extension

Arcadia High School!

favorite game, pass along this note!
